Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
διαιρέσεις διακονιῶν
divisions ˱of˲_service
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind varieties, you can express the idea by using an adjective such as “various” or “different.” Alternate translation: “various ministries” or “different ministries”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
διακονιῶν
˱of˲_service
If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea behind ministries, you can express the idea by using a verb such as “serve” or “minister.” Alternate translation: “of ways to minister”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
ὁ αὐτὸς Κύριος
the same Lord
Here Paul omits some words that your language may require to make a complete thought. Paul implies that it is the same Lord whom people serve with the varieties of ministries. If your readers would not infer that information, and if your language requires these words to make a complete thought, you could supply them. Alternate translation: “all of them minister for the same Lord” or “everyone serves the same Lord”
12:4-11 Though believers are united in the Lord and his Spirit, God gives different kinds of spiritual gifts to different people so that they can fulfill different kinds of service to the same Lord (see also 7:7; 12:7-11, 28-31; Rom 12:6-8; Eph 4:11).
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
